Rodeo (B.M. Bower)

Claude „Kid” Bennett is a young man starting to carve a place for himself in the world. His mom wants him to go to college and earn his M. D., but his dad thinks he could turn the boy into a useful man if he’d stay on the Montana ranch, and learn to work hard. Kid gets a thorn under his saddle and sets out with his three horses to a six day rodeo in Chicago. Along the way he meets J.N. Harlan, and his free-spoken daughter Dulcie who is a Chicago businessman with plenty of pull. Trailblazing female Western writer Bertha Muzzy Bower wrote a series of pulse-pounding novels about the grizzled vaqueros and cowpokes who populated the Flying U Ranch.
